Title: Fluidization and feeding of finely divided materials
IPC: B24C7/00
Filed: 1959-10-21
Abstract: 907,937. Abrasive blasting. VACU-BLAST Ltd. (Vacu-Blast (Aust.) Pty. Ltd.). Oct. 21, 1960, No. 36123/60. Class 60. [Also in Groups II, XXI and XXX] The invention of the parent Specification is modified by the provision in the storage chamber 11 of a feed chamber 25, the upper portion of which is connected with the storage chamber by a passage 27 of restricted cross-sectional area. The passage 27 is controlled by a manually adjustable valve 28. A baffle 30 separates the passage 27 from a discharge passage 26. The base of the storage chamber 11 is closed by a disc 22 of porous material held in position against a sealing ring 20 by the action of members held by wing nuts 15. In operation, air admitted at 23 passes up through the porous disc 22 and fluidizes powdered abrasive which thus passes into the feed chamber 25 and thence to the discharge passage 26. In the construction shown in Fig. 3, the feed chamber 36 is connected with the discharge passage 37 by a Pitot tube 40. The restricted passage connecting the feed chamber 36 with the chamber 33 comprises a conduit 41 having a control valve 42. The pipe 37 leads to a sandblasting gun 38 which is supplied with pressure air from a conduit 43 which also supplies air to the fluidizing porous material 35. In both constructions, the action of fluidizing the abrasive material results in the coarser particles sinking to the bottom of the storage chamber 33. The apparatus can therefore be used for separating particulate materials into different sizes. The invention may be applied to convey powdered fuel to fuel burners, and material having fire-extinguishing properties, powdered insecticide, fumicide, or a fertilizer, to an appropriate distribution point.

Patent GB-365497-A (GB)
Abstract: 365,497. Fluid-actuated valves. JUNKERS, H., 21, Kaiserplatz, Dessau, Anhalt, Germany. Aug. 11, 1931, No. 22728. Convention date, Oct. 24, 1930. [Class 135.] A valve 3 in the water supply pipe 2 of water heater 1, Fig. 1, is closed, when the taps in the delivery pipe 7 are closed, by a spring 23<1>, and is opened, when the taps are opened, by a diaphragm or the like 4 actuated by the drop in pressure in a throttled byepass 6 between the supply and delivery pipes. A non- return valve 11 is provided in the supply pipe. A valve 13 in the overflow pipe 12 is automatically closed when water is drawn off. The valve 13 is connected to a diaphragm 14 and is normally closed by a spring 19. The pressure difference on opposite sides of a .restriction 18 in the supply pipe acts on the diaphragm and opens the valve when the supply taps are opened. The valve 3, Fig. 2, in the supply pipe and the valve 13 in the overflow are operated by the same diaphragm 4. A bore 21 in the spindle of the valves forms part of the byepass between the supply and delivery pipes. The valve 13, Fig. 3, is opened against the pressure of a spring 23 by the spindle of the valve 3, and the restriction 9 in the byepass is controlled by a needle valve connected to the non- return valve 11 in the supply pipe. In a further modification, the restriction is controlled by a valve operated by a heat-sensitive member in the delivery pipe. The valve 3 in the supply pipe of a geyser is operated by the pressure fall through a byepass containing a water-heating tank. Small demands for hot water are met by the tank, but the withdrawal of large quantities sets up a pressure drop through the bore 21 and causes the valve 3<1> to open thus allowing water to flow to the geyser. The supply through the byepass to the tank is simultaneously restricted or cut off.

[Class 37.] A tank for accommodating an oilcooled air-core reactor comprises a side or sides of insulating material with metallic top and bottom portions and a hollow metallic structure adapted to serve both as a magnetic screen and as a cooling system for the oil, said metal structure being connected to the top and bottom portions and disposed outside of and in spaced relationship with the insulating tank portion. As shown in Figs. 1 and 2 the tank comprises an insulating cylinder 3 with metal top and bottom portions 1, 2 the tank portions being held together by longitudinal bronze bolts 14 and oil-tight joints are formed between the tank portions by cork gaskets 6, 11 arranged in grooves 10, 5 formed in the edges of the metallic end portions. Extending downwardly from the upper end portion 1 is a vertical header 16 of copper and extending upwardly from the lower end portion 2 is a similar header 18, the headers being connected by semicircular pipes 19 to form an oil circulating system. These pipes which are mainly of iron are spaced at such a radius from the tank that excessive eddy current losses and consequent.heating in them are avoided ; the pipes 19<a> near the centre of the coil, which tend to be threaded by a greater flux and consequently carry a greater induced current, may be made of copper instead of iron. The spacing of the tubes 19 around the tank prevent any material likely to affect the magnetic field of the reactor from being disposed too near the tank. In a modified arrangement, Figs. 3 and 4 (not shown), the cooling tubes are replaced by groups of radiator elements extending radially from and spaced from the insulating tank portion and the central portion of the radiator elements may be surrounded by a metal cylindrical shield to prevent the spread of flux during short-circuit conditions.
